A friend of mine has been working on startng a academy based on the trainings of the Jedi. Only George Lucas loves money so there is no using the name"Jedi."
Thanks to Ormungander(OM108X) I suggested the origin of the name. Djedhi. The were the high preists of egypt and on their way to becomeing ascendant masters, and the djed pillar is a symbol of stability and regeneration. I interpret regeneration as a form of imortality.

Now researching it more I found very little use of the actuall word/name Djedhi or Djedi. More than anything it was Djed or the city of Djedu. One Djed wizard was told to have been able to resurect the dead. He refused to demonstrate on a slave, so instead killed and animal(a sheep I think) and brought it back to life.

I am asking for any assistance, advice, teachings, comments, recomendations, and anything that can help further this intention along it's path. I will let you all know more as it progresses.

Be the force
